This is in line with public health requirements and advice relating to Covid-19. Due to various commitments for next year, the band are unable to reschedule these shows for 2021. This cancellation is not what the band wanted, but they are very mindful of the wellbeing of band, audience and crew. Despite the fact that many shows have already sold out, an outright cancellation will allow our valued fans to receive a refund on tickets purchased. All UK and EU dates scheduled for October, November and December are now cancelled - note that the three French dates scheduled for November are now also cancelled. Quo is a band largely defined by their live performances and we cannot wait for the next time that we can perform safely, securely – and loudly!

And all of your tickets for the 2020 shows remain valid for the 2021 shows. Please retain your tickets. Those who have meet'n'greet packages, VIP packages and standard tickets can look forward to seeing the show in their local venues in spring 2021, when we all hope that the threat of Covid-19 has passed. Francis was one of the first British entertainers to postpone his tour - making the decision before the Government asked people to avoid visiting theatres. He did so to avoid the risk to fans - and is now looking forward to repaying their faith in him by touring next year and meeting thousands of fans across England, Scotland and Wales. Francis said: "It was a tough decision to postpone the tour, but the health and welfare of our fans was the top priority. We've worked very quickly to reschedule the dates - making sure that has been done within 48 hours. "So the message now is simple: fans can hold onto their tickets and we can all catch up and have a good time in spring next year. It’s not too long to wait - and I'd rather be meeting fans when it's safe to do so for everyone. See you on the road. It won't be long. Stay safe."Isle Of Wight - Shanklin TheatreBUY TICKETS01983 868000Feb 19Dorking - Dorking HallsBUY TICKETS 01306 881717Feb 20Stamford - Corn ExchangeBUY TICKETS01780 766455Feb 21Wolverhampton - Grand TheatreBUY TICKETS 01902 429212 Feb 22Ipswich - Corn ExchangeBUY TICKETS 01473 433100Feb 23Peterborough - Cresset TheatreBUY TICKETS 01733 265705March 2021Mar 01Telford - Oakengates TheatreBUY TICKETS 01952 382 382Mar 02Bedford - Corn ExchangeBUY TICKETS 01234 718044Mar 03Portsmouth - New Theatre RoyalBUY TICKETS 023 9264 9000Mar 04Winchester - Theatre RoyalBUY TICKETS 01962 840440 Mar 05Exmouth - PavilionBUY TICKETS 01395 222477Mar 06Frome - Memorial TheatreBUY TICKETS 01373 462795Mar 09Kettering - Lighthouse TheatreBUY TICKETS 01536 414141Mar 10Stevenage - Gordon Craig TheatreBUY TICKETS 01438 363200Mar 11Stockport - Plaza TheatreBUY TICKETS 0161 477 7779Mar 12Chesterfield - Winding WheelBUY TICKETS 01246 345222Mar 13Wrexham - William Aston HallBUY TICKETS 0844 249 1000Mar 14Colwyn Bay - Theatre ColwynBUY TICKETS 01492 556 667 Mar 15Lytham St Annes - Lowther PavilionBUY TICKETS 01253 794221 Mar 18Redditch - Palace TheatreBUY TICKETS 01527 65203Mar 19Musselburgh - BruntonBUY TICKETS 0131 665 2240 Mar 20Dunfermline - AlhambraBUY TICKETS 01383 740 384 Mar 21Durham - Gala TheatreBUY TICKETS 03000 266600 Mar 22Newcastle - Tyne TheatreBUY TICKETS 0844 2491 000Mar 23Scarborough - Spa TheatreBUY TICKETS 01723 821888Mar 28Margate - Theatre RoyalBUY TICKETS 01843 292795Mar 29Hastings - White RockBUY TICKETS 01424 462288Mar 30Maidstone - Hazlitt TheatreBUY TICKETS 01622 758611Mar 31Wellingborough - Castle TheatreBUY TICKETS 01933 270 007 Crawley - The HawthBUY TICKETS 01293 553636Apr 2St Albans - Alban ArenaBUY TICKETS 01727 844488 Apr 10Northallerton - ForumBUY TICKETS 01609 776230Apr 11Yarm - Princes Alexandra AuditoriumBUY TICKETS 01624 792587Apr 13Hull - City HallBUY TICKETS 01482 300 306Apr 14Bradford - St George'sBUY TICKETS 01274 432000Apr 15Leicester - De Montford HallBUY TICKETS 0116 233 3111Apr 18Camberley - Camberley TheatreBUY TICKETS 01276 707600Apr 19Stafford - GatehouseBUY TICKETS01785 619080Apr 20Hereford - CourtyardBUY TICKETS01432 340555Apr 21Aberystwyth - University Concert HallBUY TICKETS 01970 623232Apr 22Newport - RiverfrontBUY TICKETS 01633 656679Apr 23Newton - Theatre HafrenBUY TICKETS 01686 614555Apr 26Lincoln - Theatre RoyalBUY TICKETS 01522 519 999Apr 27Runcorn - The BrindleyBUY TICKETS 0151 907 8360 Apr 28Corby - CubeBUY TICKETS 01536 470470Apr 29Middlesbrough - Town HallBUY TICKETS01642 729 729Apr 30Leeds - City VarietiesBUY TICKETS 0113 234 0808May 2021May 03Bristol - St GeorgesBUY TICKETS 0845 402 4001May 04Hertford - TheatreBUY TICKETS 01992 531500May 06Ilfracombe - Landmark TheatreBUY TICKETS 01271 316 523May 07Treorchy - Park and Dare TheatreBUY TICKETS 03000 040 444 May 08Neath - Gwyn HallBUY TICKETS 0300 365 6677May 09Brecon - Theatr BrycheiniogBUY TICKETS 01874 611622Deluxe expanded editions of ‘Perfect Remedy’ (3xCD), ‘Rock ‘Til You Drop' (3xCD), and ‘Thirsty Work’ (2xCD) are OUT NOW!

The LP is the band's 33rd 33rpm!Some doubters said 'Backbone' was a record that could not be made, but the 2019 line-up of Status Quo has been through a lot, they have chalked up 130 shows as a unit and travelled tens of thousands of miles. This is a group of musicians that is strong, that back each other up and are tighter than ever. 'Backbone' features of a trio songs drawn from the classic partnership of Rossi / Young as well as contributions from all of the rest of the band. The eleven track album was recorded at Francis' studio in the late months of 2018 and into this year. The sessions were initially just to keep the juices flowing, improvise and have fun. As the hours rolled on, songs stacked up, everyone began to believe that something special was happening. And so it proved. Even from within the group, there had been some resistance to creating a new record. As Francis says, "This new material had to be seriously good. Quo have achieved so much and meant so much to too many people for the quality to slip now. Also, let’s face it, things have changed and we’re an easier target than ever. Losing Rick was hard to bear but, through Richie Malone, who was inspired to pick up a guitar by him, we can not only keep going but actually pick up the pace. The energy that he and Leon bring to Quo can’t be underestimated. I wasn’t sure I had another album in me but I couldn’t be more proud of ‘Backbone’. I hope the fans love it, but you can’t please everyone and I’m not going to start trying to now". To have 'Backbone' means to stand firm, to stand up for what you believe in. The title fits. The hundreds of songs recorded by Quo over half a century still resonate today, and the tracks on this album are a worthy addition to that incredible catalogue. A new Quo studio album is a cause for celebration, especially when it kicks like this one. And for the doubters? A 'Backbone' is also a support, a unifying element that keeps things in shape. Underlying this new record are the core desires to keep creating, to be the best and to keep playing: these are the qualities that have kept Quo at the top for so long. 'Backbone' will ensure that Francis Rossi and Quo keep standing proud. And, by naming the album 'Backbone', they’re ready for the 'Spinal Tap' headlines too!Andy Bown - Unfinished Business Re-issueAndy Bown's 2011 album Unfinished Business is now re-issued on NoCut Records.This special re-issue features brand new cover artwork and eleven tracks including the previously unreleased bonus track ‘Dancing In The Rain’.CD and Digital Sales and Streaming: https://andybown.lnk.to/UnfinishedBusinessMore information at www.andybown.comNew Kids Book To Inspire Children About Wildlife ConservationAndrew Bown's wife Veronica Plumbe has released a children’s book (aimed at ages 8-10) thatboth entertains and educates whilst making children aware of the importance of wildlife conservation.‘My name is Happiness’ is the heart-warming story of a warthog piglet who learns about poaching thehard way and determines to help put an end to it.

Reconnecting with one of Rossi's true loves, this is a collection of Country-flavoured duets and is available now via earMUSIC. Featuring all brand-new material, and boasting writing credits for Rossi and Rickard as well as Quo stalwart Bob Young, this album has been a true labour of love.www.francisrossi.comThe Book - I Talk Too MuchThe new autobiography, 'I Talk Too Much', is published by Little, Brown. This gripping brand-new book has been created in conjunction with award-winning writer and broadcaster Mick Wall, who has sold more than 1 million books. In this explosive new memoir, the famously indiscreet Rossi reveals the true-life stories behind his unbelievable career. Painfully honest at times, the book covers the glory years, the dark days, the ups and downs of his relationship with the late Rick Parfitt and the real stories behind the creation of some of the greatest rock music of all time.www.francisrossi.comAvailable now - a pair of ‘twin’ live albums, ‘Down Down Dignified At The Royal Albert Hall’ and ‘Down Down Dirty At Wacken’ through earMUSIC. Quo's line-up for both these shows, recorded last year, features Francis Rossi, Andy Bown, John ‘Rhino’ Edwards, Leon Cave and Richie Malone. The Albert Hall show, featuring an aquostic set with a number of additional musicians, are available on CD and Vinyl only - whilst the Wacken show, an exciting electric set recorded and filmed at one of Germany's biggest rock and metal festivals, is available on CD+DVD and Vinyl.Order Down Down Dignified At The Royal Albert Hall here: statusquo-downdown.lnk.to/dignifiedPR Order Down Down Dirty At Wacken here: statusquo-downdown.lnk.to/dirtyPR Order both albums and T-shirts/Posters here: https://statusquo.tmstor.es/
